Chapter 317 The fate is you(2/2)
Wang Lengran was also the governor of Yizhou. I heard that he was from a well-off gentry in the north. Of course, he was not at the level of the fifth surname and the seventh king.
In short, the identity is consistent.
The success rate of the promotion ceremony is not small.
Anyway, Ouyang Rong's conscience is 100% passable.
There's just one problem.
Will it alert the snake? The risk is too great.
Due to the needs of the ceremony, Ouyang Rong had to spread his sword in public and kill the sacrifice.
Cut off the head of a Shangzhou governor in public.
It's a bit too blatant.
If the court's face is involved, a thorough investigation will be carried out.
Xie Lingjiang once casually warned not to underestimate the power of the imperial Qi practitioners.
In Ouyang Rong's memory, there was a department in Dali Temple, the capital of the gods, that specialized in handling Qi practitioner incidents. It gathered the world's top detective experts and could second the Qi practitioners from the Yin and Yang family in the palace to assist.
In the age of peace, qigong practitioners at home and abroad must consider whether they dare to kill the governor of the imperial court.
Ouyang Rong raised his eyebrows slightly.
So, are we going to fight with them?
Besides, as Wang Lengran is a member of the Wei family, if he kills him, will it anger the Wei family and make him someone more difficult to deal with?
For a time, he was confused.
Ouyang Rong looked at the Mohist sword box containing the tripod sword on the table, and the sandalwood box containing the "Mo Jiao" elixir.
Killing Wang Lengran with a cloth sword is simple.
Even if he is protected by a Qi Practitioner, as long as he does not exceed the sixth level, he cannot stop the invincible sword of "Tang Zuo".
After all, how can you guard against thieves for a thousand days...and guard against sword-wielding men?
But the death of this old thief will have too many implications.
Even Empress Wei might conduct a thorough investigation herself.
Even if Mrs. Di helps, it will be difficult to suppress this matter.
In addition, there is another point to consider. After killing Wang Lengran in public, Ding Jian will show up, right?
Wouldn't it be announced to the whole world that there is a tripod sword and a sword holder in Xunyang City?
In fact, the difficulty in this matter lies in the fact that the ceremony requires "all the attention".
If someone can kill someone quietly, there are many ways to destroy the body and eliminate traces for someone who has been watching social and legal channels since childhood...
Is it going to be passed on to Yunmeng Jianze like the Wei Shaoxuan matter?
After all, only such a hidden sect who has stood for thousands of years can take on such a big pot.
But...wouldn't it be bad?
There is no grudge. It is a bit unethical to continue doing such things that benefit oneself at the expense of others.
Although the little wooden fish is motionless and most likely will not receive merit points, Ouyang Rong's conscience will slightly condemn him.
Besides, the old swordsmith originally wanted to hand over the "craftsman's work" and Ah Qing to Yunmeng Jianze to follow the Lotus Tower Alliance.
Ouyang Rong's appearance disrupted the plan by mistake, which was regarded as a stumbling block.
Speaking of which, the great lady named Xue Zhongzhu came down from the sky to Xiaogu Mountain to create chaos and indirectly saved his life.
Ouyang Rong frowned slightly.
"Be sure to decide first, plan carefully, don't act rashly, find a way out first.
"Besides, it's best not to offend those female nuns in Yunmeng. They have too many blames to blame. What if they catch me? Wouldn't they chase me to the ends of the earth and cut me to pieces with a thousand knives?
"Currently, it seems that as the leader of swordsmanship in the world, Xue Zhongzhu's talent and cultivation are too outrageous. If I stand still and let me use my sword at will, even if I use up all my anger, I may not be able to touch the hem of her skirt...
…”
Ouyang Rong murmured and nodded.
Outside the window beside the table, the night is dark.
Inside the house, it's dark.
Suddenly, a clear blue sword light poured out from the gap in the wooden box.
At the table, a handsome young man stared straight ahead.
An "arc" floats on the table.
One person and one sword, silent.
…
The next day, night.
In the main room of Yinbingzhai, Ouyang Rong, who was dressed in pure white and seemed to be about to go to bed, turned his head and glanced at Ye Weilai, who was sleeping peacefully.
He walked over, took out a recently made bamboo umbrella, and opened it.
The surface of the umbrella is fiery red, and there are almost dried ink, and there is a love sentence that makes his old face blush.
Ouyang Rong coughed lightly, put on his black and gray regular clothes, and went out carrying a carefully made red paper umbrella.
Tonight is another agreed day for gathering at Prince Xunyang’s Mansion for discussion.
Ouyang Rong quickly climbed over the wall, escaped the curfew, crossed several squares, and arrived at Xiushui Square.
On the way, looking at the misty night sky and the distant ships shining like stars on the Xunyang River, an idea suddenly came to his mind.
If Wang Lengran's head was really taken off with a "craftsman's work", would it be considered as telling the Wei family that the Cauldron Sword has an owner and something happened to Wei Shaoxuan?
This will be beneficial to Prince Xunyang's Mansion.
After all, Wei's fantasy of a comeback was shattered.
Until now, the Wei family has been slow to move and has not integrated the internal voices. It is very likely that some people still have expectations and illusions about Wei Shaoxuan and Qiu Shenji's trip to the Dingjian and are waiting for their return.
The cover-up set up by Ouyang Rong has never been exposed.
Of course, the prerequisite for exposing the "craftsman's work" is still to survive the investigation by various forces including the Wei family.
This comes back to the issue of retreat.
After all, he is in the position of Jiangzhou Governor and cannot leave Xunyang City.
Ouyang Rong frowned in confusion.
But no matter what, it can be regarded as a benefit that can be brought by killing Wang Leng.
Half an hour later, Ouyang Rong rushed to the study room ahead of schedule.
Not long after, Li Xian, Wei Mei, and Li Dalang arrived, except for a certain beautiful figure.
Ouyang Rong frowned and asked, "Da Lang, where is your sister?"
Li Dalang looked embarrassed:
"The Poetry Society has another gathering tonight, but this time it's at our Xiushui Fang. My sister said she's coming back, but Tanlang seems to have come a little early tonight, and she hasn't returned yet."
Ouyang Rong pursed his lips and said directly:
"We won't wait for her. Let's discuss it first. When the time comes, just convey it to her."
"Okay." Li Xian and Li Dalang laughed.
Wei Mei frowned, slapping the table and gasping: "This girl is getting more and more outrageous, and she kept Tan Lang waiting for a long time. I won't break her legs when I come back!"
The lady in the long skirt paid attention to Ouyang Rong's face from the corner of her eye while scolding her beloved daughter.
Ouyang Rong had no choice but to advise: "Why did Auntie do this? It's not that serious."
Wei Mei immediately handed Ouyang Rong tea: "Baoer is ignorant, Tanlang, don't be angry."
Half an hour later, the routine discussion ended and everyone dispersed with thoughtful expressions on their faces.
Ouyang Rong grabbed the red umbrella and walked out of the study. Instead of climbing over the wall and returning immediately, he turned to call Li Dalang and asked:
"Where is the courtyard, little junior sister?"
Li Dalang immediately pointed the way: "Near the back garden in the southeast corner, Tanlang first walks along the main corridor, then turns left and heads south..."
As he spoke, Li Dalang glanced at the delicate red umbrella in his friend's hand:
"Why are Tanlang going there? Didn't Miss Xie reply to the letter? She won't be back in two days?"
"Ahem, it's a little personal matter. It's okay. Goodbye, sir. Go to bed early."
